PDL to USL 2

PDL is changing to USL 2!

The #Path2Pro – the PDL will become USL League Two – and we are excited and proud to be part of the PDL/USL family! “Together we are moving soccer forward”!

Maintaining its heritage with a bold, red logo, League Two will continue to forge the game’s future, delivering the first taste of premier competition in an authentic national soccer environment with a hyper-local focus. It is the gateway to stardom for those who prove they belong and have the desire to advance into the professional ranks, providing more than 70 percent of players selected in the MLS SuperDraft over the past eight years.

USL League Two Vice President Joel Nash

“As the proven Path to Pro, USL League Two will continue the success of the PDL by continuing as the best pre-professional environment for the North American soccer landscape. Whether it’s communities becoming soccer hotbeds, exciting owners beginning their journeys or our nation’s elite U23 player launching their professional careers, League Two is here to grow.”
